THIS year’s event is set to be one of the biggest Electra Mining Africa exhibitions to date with over 850 companies exhibiting across six exhibition halls and four sizable outside exhibit areas.
Visitors will get to see the latest industry innovations with thousands of new products and technologies on show, and hundreds of live demonstrations showcasing machinery and equipment in action.
Taking place in Nasrec, Johannesburg, from 2-6 September, Electra Mining Africa is recognised as a ‘5-in-1 Trade Show’. The five incorporated shows – Electra Mining Africa, Automation Expo, Elenex Africa, POWERex, and Transport Expo – will put the spotlight on mining, manufacturing, engineering and related industries; automation, instrumentation, mechatronics and control; the electronics, electrical and electro-mechanical sectors; as well as power generation, power transmission and distribution, power application and renewable energy.
The Local Southern African Manufacturing Expo has also been incorporated for the first time with its focus on local manufacturing.
“Electra Mining Africa has built its reputation as a platform for trade; the place where buyers and sellers meet to do business. Deals are made and beneficial partnerships are formed, “ says Gary Corin, MD of Specialised Exhibitions, organisers of Electra Mining Africa and a division of Montgomery Group. Seminar topics will also be aligned with the show’s theme days of sustainability, women’s day and skills development, safety and lifting, innovation, and South Africa day. The Lifting Equipment Engineering Association of SA (LEEASA) and the Southern African Institute of Mining and Metallurgy (SAIMM) will be hosting conferences alongside the show sharing valuable content.
Visitors can look out for the Forklift Driver competition, organised in conjunction with Lifting Africa and LEEASA, taking place on each day of the show.
